Install GooManager.
Open goo and tap menu button and choose "install open recovery". It might reboot to do this.
Copy your CROM-X file to your sdcard, preferably in the GooIm folder.
From Goo, choose to flash a rom, find your CROM file, choose backup, wipe data and wipe caches (check all 3 checkboxes). Goo should boot into TWRP (the open recovery it just installed), make a backup and flash your rom. If you leave the backup name empty (which I always do), it'll use the date and time. You can always rename it later.
Now the icky part... When it's done backing up your current rom, and CROM-X installs, you'll have to pick which apps you want installed, what kernel to use (I usually do the defaults on most of those), etc. You can always uninstall apps later.
Sorry, this was from memory, so I might not have the exact folder names, etc. I'm sure you can figure it out.

The keyboard was the main attraction for me. I swore all my new devices would have a dock.
